Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Fe3O4 NPs increased total chlorophyll content, carotenoid content and total soluble sugars of broccoli seedlings compared with control.
- Intervention effect Fe3O4 NPs increased protein content and nitrate reductase activity of broccoli seedlings compared with control.
- Intervention effect Fe3O4 NPs declined electrolyte leakage, lipid peroxidation and proline content of broccoli seedlings compared with control.
- Intervention effect Fe3O4 NPs declined superoxide dismutase and catalase activities of broccoli seedlings compared with control.
- Intervention effect Exposure to iron oxide nano-treatments at 30 mg/L reduced cadmium accumulation in the seedlings.
- Intervention effect Seedlings exposed to NP2 (30 mg/L) of green-synthesized nano iron oxide showed increased nutrient uptake.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that bio-based iron oxide nanoparticles were significantly useful for plant growth by enhancing the plant defence mechanism under cadmium toxicity.
- Observation The crystalline nature of the green-synthesized Fe3O4 nanoparticles was established by X-ray diffraction.
- Observation FT-IR analysis revealed bioactive phytochemicals present in the Moringa leaf extract-based Fe3O4 nanoparticles.
- Observation Electron microscopy showed a spherical morphology of the green-synthesized Fe3O4 nanoparticles.
